AN: Yes, I know I totally effed-up the last chapter. Even though it sucked, you guys still review. Just so you know, Merridaine, Pretty Pink Princess Pony is a girl. (Lol, I loved your reviews) Um, again, you asked for Itachi to call again, maybe he will, maybe he won't… that's your discovery. I'm going to put a NaruHina moment in this chapter, and I'll go easy on with the fluff… some of you said the Sasusaku last chapter was too fluffy.

Plus, some of you are probably wondering why I only featured Sasuke and Neji's victimizing last chapter, but in the NaruHina moment, I'll probably do a flashback (!) so you know what really happened with Hinata and Naruto last night.

I really liked it when you guys thought Gaara playing computer games was funny… I thought it was funny too.

Disclaimer: I own nothing, except Pretty Pink Princess Pony. Don't take her! You'll have to ask me, followed by the rest of the procedures I kindly stated in the previous chapter. I don't own Bloody Knuckles… I have no idea who ever made up such a game… but it's an emo's paradise. (I'm joking for all those emo people out there)

Ooooooo, pretty line!

Recap: "Good night, Sasuke–kun." she said.

"Night, Cherry Blossom." he said and kissed her on the forehead.

They quickly fell asleep in each others arms, with her Pretty Pink Princess Pony between them.

End recap

Hinata slowly opened her eyes. 'Am I the first one to wake up? No, Sasuke's out of his sleeping bag', she thought.

"Where's S-Sasuke?" she spoke out loud, not expecting anyone to reply, since everyone was asleep.

"Sasuke's with Sakura in her room." Gaara said. He got bored of the computer and started watching TV with the volume low around 4:45 am.

"W-W-WHAT?!" Hinata screamed. Sleeping with someone who was the opposite sex was rather juvenile, in her opinion.

"He's sleeping with Sakura in her room." Gaara stated simply.

"R-R-Really? I b-b-better get a c-c-camera!" Hinata grabbed Sakura's digital camera from the table beside her.

Hinata creped slowly towards Sakura's room, with Gaara behind her.

"Turn off the flash." he whispered.

Hinata nodded and slowly opened the door to find Sakura sleeping in Sasuke's arms with her Pretty Princess Pink Pony tucked under her arm.

"Awwww." Hinata said and snapped a picture.

"Ewww." Gaara said in disgust.

"Let's give them some privacy." she said and closed the door.

Hinata and Gaara walked into the living room, stepping over Temari in the process.

(Let me explain the sleeping arrangement. Kankuro was sleeping on one side of the L-shaped couch, while Sasuke "was" sleeping on the other end. Hinata was sleeping a few feet away from Naruto ((Neji's orders. Actually, Neji ended up sleeping in between them with Tenten)). Temari was sleeping in a far corner of the living room. Shikamaru and Ino were "hugging" in their sleep, ((if it's scientifically possible to stay like that the whole night)), on the other couch. Kiba, Chouji, and Shino were on the floor, in the middle of the room with cards all over them, from their previous game of Bloody Knuckles. The only way Gaara could sit on the couch was to sit where Sasuke was supposed to be sleeping.)

"Gaara? Um, w-w-what do y-you want for b-b-breakfast?" Hinata asked.

"Oh, um, I feel pancake-ish." he said.

"Ok. I'm sure everyone else would like pancakes." she said and walked into Sakura's huge kitchen.

She took out a frying pan and started making batter for pancakes and boiled some water because she knew Naruto would want Ramen for breakfast.

Naruto was having a nice dream. Actually, about Ramen Land. He was sleeping peacefully until he smelled REAL Ramen.

"Ramen! Ramen! Ramen! Ramen! I smell Ramen!" he screamed.

"Shhhhh! You baka! Don't wake up everybody! Geez..." Gaara scolded.

"Sorry. Where's the Ramen anyway?" Naruto said, but didn't really care if he woke up anyone else.

"Hinata is making breakfast. I think she made Ramen." Gaara said, while flipping through the channels with the remote.

"Oh, Really?" Naruto said excitedly. He walked into the kitchen looking for Hinata and the Ramen.

"Hinata, you made Ramen!!" he said, as he found her making pancakes.

"Naruto-kun! I-I thought y-you'd want some." she said, suddenly afraid that he might not wanted any at all.

"You made it just for me?" he said.

"U-um, ya…" she stuttered.

"Wow! Thanks! You're the best!" Naruto exclaimed and gave her a peck on the cheek. Hinata giggled and pecked him on his lips, right when Gaara was strolling in. He saw what they were doing, and just strolled out without a word with his eyes wide. This made Hinata giggle again.

"You're welcome." she said and turned to the pancakes.

"So last night was pretty funny, huh?" Naruto said in-between slurps of Ramen.

It took Hinata a second to realize that he was talking about when it was her turn to seduce him. Hinata giggled and blushed.

"I-I'm really s-s-sorry about t-that." she stuttered as they remembered the memory…

FLASHBACK!!

Hinata was getting nervous. Tenten just left and Sakura just came back. Now it was her turn.

'T-This is so n-nerve-racking!' she thought.

She felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned around to see Ino smiling at her.

"It's your turn!" she whispered. Hinata gulped.

"U-Um, Naruto-kun…" she started. She now understood why the girls' wanted her to go first and not Ino… Neji was out of the way.

"Yeah, Hinata?" he asked now aware that he was to be the next victim.

"Um, c-can I show you s-something over there, and not h-here?" she managed.

"Sure." he said and followed her down the hallway, to the left…away from Gaara playing on the computer. She led him inside a guest bedroom, (And you're wondering why they slept in the living room…) and spoke.

"I-I'm supposed t-to s-seduce y-you, but I…" she choked. She squeezed her eyes shut. "I-I c-can't."

Naruto looked at her and chuckled. "It doesn't matter, Hinata. But I really want to tell you something."

Hinata looked up at him, "Y-Yeah?" she asked.

"Listen. I've known you for a long time, and I really need to get this off my chest." he took a deep breath. "I… love you and I understand if you don't feel the same, since most people ignore me all the time. You are the prettiest girl I ever met, and before I would always call you weird, because I found it strange how I could ever fall in love. So, I just want to know… do you feel the same?" he looked nervous as hell and Hinata blushed at little. Ok… she blushed a lot.

"I-I really l-love you t-too, N-Naruto-kun. I did… f-for a l-long t-time." she said and smiled at him. He bent down and kissed her sweetly; surprised that she didn't run away or anything. Instead, she kissed back.

When they broke the kiss for air, they walked back down the hallway, into the living room, holding hands.

END OF FLASHBACK!

"It's alright, Hinata! Besides, something good came out of it, right?" he said and winked at her, before turning back to his Ramen.

Sasuke slowly opened his eyes. The sun was shinning through the blinds. He looked down and saw the pink-haired angel (with a Pretty Pink Princess Pony still tucked under her arm), laying ever so close to him. She was facing his direction and was sleeping peacefully. Sasuke smiled. She looked so pretty just lying there, and that pony matched her hair slightly. Sasuke touched her strawberry locks, which made her, wake up. Sakura lifted her eyes open.

"You awake?" he whispered.

"No," she said sleepily, "What time is it?"

Sasuke looked at her clock which lay by her bedside.

"8:30" (am) Sasuke informed her.

"How did you sleep?" she asked, and yawned.

"I slept well. You?" he asked and gently got out of the bed.

"How do you think?" she said, while smiling.

"I would say you slept pretty well." he said.

"Yeah, I did. Thanks. For, well, you know, being there. You didn't have to, but you did." she said, and crawled out of her bed also.

"You're welcome." he said. He leaned in to kiss her, but she pulled away.

"I smell pancakes." she said as her stomach rumbled.

Sasuke laughed at her randomness but sniffed to see if it wasn't a mirage. 'She's right…'

"I bet you anything Hinata is making breakfast." she said.

"Probably. You're hungry. I'm hungry. Let's go." he said, and guided her out of the room.

They were about to go into the living room, when Sasuke ran back into it her room. Sakura had a confused look on her face, but then laughed when she saw him come back with her Pony.

"You're not going to let go of that Pony, are you?" she asked with her eyebrows raised.

"Not in a million years." he said and chuckled.

Shikamaru yawned. God he was tired and he only got 6 and half hours of sleep. To make any sleeping activity any harder, Ino's body was rather heavy for poor Shika to handle on top of him.

"Finally you woke up." Gaara stated as Shikamaru tried to get up.

"What's for breakfast?" he said, as he slowly lifted Ino off of him, and replaced himself with a pillow, so she wouldn't notice the sudden absence of his warmth.

Answering Shika's question, Hinata yelled, "PAAAAAAAAAANCAAAAAAAAAAAAKES!"

Hearing Hinata yell Sasuke, Sakura and the Pony entered the room. Hinata's yells also woke everyone else up.

"Breakfast? Already?" Kankuro grumbled.

"5 more minuets!" Temari mumbled.

"I said, PANCAKES!" Hinata yelled once more, and pretty soon all of Konoha will be awake.

"Alright!" Tenten yelled.

"I'm up… I'M UP!!! Geez…" Neji said.

"I looooooooooooooove pancakes!" Ino said, and sprung up.

"I'm coming, I'm coming…" Kiba said.

"FOOOOOOOOOOOD!" Chouji yelled.

Everyone turned to Shino, expecting him to say something about how tired he is or whatever. Instead, he just looked at his strangely well manicured nails. (It's scary. I saw his fingers in an episode once.)

Everyone walked into the dinning room to find a huge plate of pancakes with whipped cream and strawberries.

Sasuke set Pretty Pink Princess Pony on her own separate chair in between him and Sakura, while everyone else sat down.

"You still huggin' that pony Pretty Boy?" Naruto said from across the table, where he was in-between Hinata and Kiba.

"Shut up Dead Last!" Sasuke snarled.

"SASUKE-TEME!" Naruto fired back.

"DOBE!" Sasuke yelled.

"What a come back…" Kankuro muttered to Chouji.

"MOTHER FUC—" Naruto was cut off.

"That's enough Naruto!" Sakura yelled.

Everyone shut up and started to eat; only Sasuke and Naruto sent each other glares from time to time.

"Wow! These are good!" Kankuro exclaimed, surprised that Hinata was so talented in the cuisine area.

"Yeah! Is everything homemade?" Ino asked, clearly interested.

Hinata didn't answer. She was pleased that her friends liked what she did for them.

Ok, sorry it took me forever to update. I had a minor writer's block and I totally screwed up the last chapter, which was quite a set back for me.

However, I'm glad you guys were honest in your reviews, and that's what really matters.

The next chapter will probably be the last one. I'm sorry, but all stories must come to an end. Besides, if you guys want a sequel, you'll have to beg, because I need lots of ideas for it! So email me some time… I already have an idea for the sequel but I'll only make one if you ask!

Next chapter: A ShikaIno moment and the gang goes home.
